Seeing Jiang Ancheng's reaction, Jiang Si was excited.
Could it be that she had guessed it right, which was why her father reacted so strongly?
She handed the handkerchief over as if she didn't care and said softly, "Don't be nervous, father. I'm just asking casually—"
Before she finished speaking, a big hand landed on her forehead.
"I don't have a fever..." Jiang Ancheng's face was full of seriousness, and he was really nervous. "Si'er, you are not chanting sutras to a clay Buddha all day long, and you haven't even seen anyone for such a long time, so you are a little confused, right?"
If his good daughter behaved in a foolish way, he would definitely hang up his bad son and give him a beating.
Jiang Si didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I don't know what my father is thinking. I am not confused."
"Then why do you ask such a strange question?"
Jiang Si had expected Jiang Ancheng to ask this question, and after a little hesitation, he said, "Didn't A-Jian go to the south? He happened to meet a girl who looked very similar to me..."
Jiang Ancheng immediately became interested: "Does it really look like you?"
"yes."
Jiang Ancheng waved his hand and said, "Impossible. Do you think it's easy to be good-looking? The prince must have seen it wrong."
Jiang Si became more and more helpless and repeatedly assured Yu Jin that he was not wrong. Only then did Jiang Ancheng believe it.
"This is just a coincidence. I was outside watching over you when your mother gave birth to you. You were the only one she gave birth to. How could there be twins?"
If he had two daughters like my daughter, he would be extremely happy. How could he not even know that one of them was missing?
Seeing Jiang Ancheng like this, Jiang seemed to believe it.
She knew very well that her father loved her so much that there was no reason for him to hide anything since he asked her about it. Moreover, her mother's death had already come to an end, and the enemies had been punished, so there was no possibility of any hidden secrets.
Jiang Si couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or relieved.
When she heard the Great Elder say that Asan had Zhou blood in her body, she actually thought that Asan might have been adopted by her current parents, and her biological parents might be the same as hers.
If I were to imagine that Asan was my twin sister, I would feel very complicated.
"Could it be possible...that the old lady secretly hid a child?" Although he felt that this possibility was extremely unlikely, Jiang Si still couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Ancheng looked at Jiang Si with a strange look in his eyes: "Si'er, is Ah Huan your daughter?"
"yes."
Jiang Ancheng sighed deeply: "If that's the case, then did she give birth to one or two children? Don't you know as a mother?"
Jiang Si was suddenly speechless, his face slightly hot.
She just wanted to rule out all possibilities from her father's perspective, but she forgot that after ten months of pregnancy, there is no mother who doesn't know how many children she has given birth to.
She already knew from her eldest sister that her mother truly fell in love with her father after she married him, and it was unlikely that she would deceive her lover by making a fuss about childbirth.
Seeing his daughter's embarrassment, Jiang Ancheng said solemnly: "Don't let your imagination run wild. You are not allowed to chant sutras or worship Buddha in the future."
Such a smart and clever girl is making him worry... Never mind, I'll just give my son a good beating to ease his mind.
Under his father's stern gaze, Jiang Si had no choice but to agree awkwardly.
It was still early before dark, and Jiang Ancheng urged Jiang Zhan to go to Yining Marquis Mansion.
This time when Jiang Zhan got into trouble, the Marquis of Yining showed real concern. Although Jiang Ancheng hated Youshi, who killed his wife, he was a kind man. He knew that the two old people were really worried about their grandson. Now that his son had returned safely, he naturally went to his grandparents' home.
No matter where they are, in-laws are the closest relatives.
Jiang Si hadn't left yet. After hearing what Jiang Ancheng said, he said, "I'll go with my second brother."
Jiang Zhan nodded happily: "It would be great if Fourth Sister could go with me."
Yu Jin hurriedly said, "I'll go too."
Jiang Si ruthlessly rejected her husband's unreasonable request: "It's already this late. If you go there suddenly, it will cause chaos in the Marquis' Mansion. Today, I will go with my second brother first. We will go together when the palace sends an invitation to the Marquis' Mansion another day."
A-min is a prince. If she really arrives at the marquis's mansion, everyone will probably revolve around her. It will not be convenient for her to ask her grandmother about things.
Yes, Jiang Si was in a hurry to go to the Yining Marquis's Mansion, because he didn't gain anything from Jiang Ancheng, so he went to test the attitude of the old lady of Yining Marquis just in case.
She looks similar to Asan, and they have such a deep bond in past and present lives. Could they really be strangers with no relationship at all?
Seeing that Yu Jin was reluctant, Jiang Si had to comfort her, "Ah Huan almost doesn't recognize you anymore, go home and accompany your daughter."
Yu Jian gave up after hearing this, and went out to separate from Jiang Si and his sister.
When the brother and sister arrived at the Yining Marquis's Mansion, they were warmly received.
The old Marquis Yining and his wife were genuinely happy. They looked at their lively grandson and then at their calm granddaughter, and their faces were filled with joy.
Uncle Su was equally delighted.
Surviving a catastrophe is bound to bring good fortune. The emperor's nephew has caught the eye of the emperor after escaping from death. His future future is limitless, and he is now destined to be the heir apparent, not to mention the niece who will become the princess to support him.
Although Uncle Su would not chase away his nephew just because he was down and out, it was certainly a good thing for him to have a successful future.
"Grandma, let my second brother talk to grandpa and uncles. I will accompany you to the warm room."
The old lady of Yining Marquis naturally did not refuse. She was helped by Jiang Si into the warm room and sat comfortably on the bed. She sighed, "Girl, your second brother is fine, so grandma is relieved. You can talk to your mother in the underworld in the future--"
Jiang Si hurriedly said, "It's still the New Year, grandma, please don't talk nonsense."
According to people’s custom, the New Year is not truly over until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
The old lady of Yining Marquis laughed and said, "What's the big deal? No one can live forever, otherwise they will become spirits."
Seeing the atmosphere getting warmer, Jiang Si pursed his lips and asked tentatively, "Grandma, why did you only give birth to my mother, a daughter?"
The old lady of Marquis Yining’s smile froze.
Jiang Si gently massaged the old lady's legs and sighed, "If I had an aunt, I could accompany you more on behalf of my mother."
The old lady's eyes instantly turned red.
Finding that the test was not strong enough, Jiang Si said bluntly: "During the trip to the south, the prince actually found a woman who looked very similar to me, but my mother couldn't have given birth to twins. Grandmother, could it be that my mother had a sister who was stranded outside-"
"What nonsense!" the old lady shouted.
Jiang Si stared intently at the old lady's reaction.
The old lady had regained her composure. She reached out and touched Jiang Si's thick hair, and said angrily, "You are a very stable girl. Why do you suddenly have such wild ideas?"
Jiang Si looked at the old lady with burning eyes, a smile on his face: "I just think it's too coincidental. Isn't grandma curious about where the woman who looks like her granddaughter is from?"
The old lady looked away and said with a smile, "It's no coincidence, so don't let your imagination run wild."
